Human Anatomy & Physiology Unit 2

General Notes About Unit 2:

Click to enlarge and appreciate

In Unit 2 we move from the world of the very small to a world within range of the human eye - a great relief for many students!  Be aware that we have an extensive collection of real human bones and they need a great deal of care and respect.  NEVER use pencils, pens or sharp probes to point - use only a soft, clean paintbrush (you will need to bring your paintbrush each day in this unit and you will need to bring it when you go to Open Lab).
